Enjoy your weekend all and stay safe.

And so , Clint Bowyer and the 5-Hour Energy crew are celebrating as they bring home the win in Sonoma of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Save Mart 350.

Our favorite driver (Tony Stewart) came in second for the second week in a row. At least he made a jump in the Sprint Cup Standings. Hopefully next week in Kentucky he can make it to the winners circle.

I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend. Lets get ready for the start of a new week tomorrow.

Good morning all and welcome to the weekend.

We ended up with the weekend off so we are going to enjoy some of what the local area has to offer. Me and a few guys from work will be heading out today to do a bit of skeet/trap shooting at Milford Hills Hunt Club ,  www.milfordhills.com . Sure to be a good time. As well as burn out some frustration and bring out a bit of camaraderie.

Be safe all and enjoy …

Howdy all,

Quick note to check in.

I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. I spent the weekend in Illinois with my family. Travelled back to Wisconsin for work on Monday. All is well here to date.

Jamie, Adam and myself are working out our fall hunt plans. As well as travel plans for some upcoming hunts. Ill be in Oklahoma with my family doing some hog hunting early July. Then me and Jamie and Adam get together in Florida for a gator hunt. That is sure to be a good time as we will be hunting the Space Coast for alligators.

Me and Jamie have a busy schedule for a trip out to the northwest late September in search of mule deer.

Ill be hunting the Midwest during archery season to take a whitetail or two for the freezer.

We have plenty of opportunity's for some great footage this year as we prepare for some awesome upcoming ventures with the Spur Chaser crew.

I have been working out some details and trying to get my son his first trophy class whitetail hunt this fall. That is sure to be a memory never to be forgotten by him or myself. Hopefully all goes well with negotiations.

I am also busy working on a wish list and putting in a few orders for new fall hunting gear. I don’t want to be taking to the woods with mediocre gear in the midst of ‘The moment of truth’.

Enjoy your week all and make the most of it. Your life is a play, choreographed by you yourself. Make it what you want. The only regret you will ever have is what you thought you should have done.

Happy Fathers Day !!!

Id like to wish you all a special day to enjoy your time spent as a father, and reflect upon the good things life has offered you.

I want to send out a special ‘Thank You’ to two special men in my life. Both are dear to me and have influenced me tremendously in there own ways through the years. First, my father … Second, my uncle.

Through thick and thin no matter where my life's path has ventured, they have always been there to help me find my way.

Enjoy your day , …

Good morning all ,

Welcome to Friday. I hope your week went well and you are wrapping up any loose ends before the weekend begins.

I will be travelling over the weekend. Heading south to Illinois to visit family / friends. Should be able to catch me Saturday evening at Rays Ranch House in Essex.

Be safe and enjoy all whatever your endeavors may be for the weekend.

Happy Birthday …

Goes out today to a very special ‘Lil Man , and my favorite Hunting Buddy. My son turns 8 today, growing up too fast.

I am proud of him and his accomplishments, and am looking forward to many more.

Good morning all and welcome to the weekend,

Just a quick update as to the current happenings and some upcoming details.

Im still in Wisconsin working, be here a few more weeks yet. I have been busy working with Jamie on lining up our future hunt dates and travel plans.

We have successfully added a Predator hunt to our schedule in February.

We will be hunting with Hickory Creek Outfitters ( www.hickorycreekoutfitters.com ) . They are located in Kansas and not far from my home.

Our fall hunt schedule looks pretty good, as does next years already filling up fast.

We still have a few spots left for our Africa trip. If your interested you need to get ahold of me. We will be starting to look for our airline tickets and secure them here in a couple months.

Enjoy your weekend all and be safe …

Good evening all,

I hope you had a productive ‘Hump Day’ …

I have been busier than ever working out fall hunt plans. It seems as soon as I think I am done, the phone rings/an email arrives/a new text message/or something. Hunts keep piling up. Not that I'm complaining.

Originally,

I had planned on starting my season mid September for early season archery whitetail in Missouri. Well, then I got drawn for Alligator tags in Florida state hunting over Labor Day weekend.

Then,

I decided I am in need of a vacation with the family, and it only seems fair that since my son has been hounding me about it … we go to Oklahoma on a hog hunt the beginning of July.

Now,

All of this may not seem so bad to a few of you. But as I have already scheduled my fall season, these hunts have been added, and now ….

I am already having to schedule for next year. There is a late winter predator hunt in Kansas on the table, as well as a Kansas spring turkey hunt, and now a possible bear/elk hunt in Colorado for early next fall.

I did not realize there were that many pages/dates/places to write notes in a planner … lol

We will be hunting in Florida with Central Florida Trophy Hunts ( www.centralfloridatrophyhunts.com )  That hunt will have Jamie with Camoed Up Productions behind the camera, as well as my good friend Adam from Illinois/Myself trying to tag out on a couple of Florida's prehistoric dinosaurs.

Have a good evening all. Be sure to keep an eye here, and on my Facebook pages for updates/info/dates to everything up/coming.

Welcome to Monday,

‘Congratulations’ is due for Jimmy Johnson for winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Race yesterday at the Monster Mile.

Im off work early today as to take care of business. I also had to do my interview for the Trial By Fire Outdoors radio show. Aaron Jones and myself had a nice conversation on the topic of ‘Field Points or Broadheads’ for archery practice. As well we got a chance to talk about the Spur Chaser brand and crew plans for this upcoming hunting season.

Hopefully your week has started well. If not, make tomorrow better.

Enjoy your afternoon/evening all.

Good Morning all and Welcome to Sunday,

Ive got a lot to do today with this being my only day off. Gives me a chance to catch up on phone calls/emails/texts/etc.

First off,

Ritchie had the Spur Chaser Racing buggy in Rausch Creek, Pa this weekend for an event. He Qualified well, in 10th for the Main Event. Come race day, he had some sort of electrical issue on the buggy and wasn’t able to finish.

Next,

Ive scheduled a trip to Oklahoma with the family for the beginning of July to do some hog hunting. Be a nice break after being away from home so long working. I know my son is excited and cant wait to try his skills again at a porker.

Ive got a few more details to be worked out on up-n-coming ventures for the Spur Chaser Crew. As soon as I line’m out, Ill post updates.

Enjoy your Sunday all and don’t forget about the Nascar Sprint Cup Race in Dover today.

June 1st, where has the time gone.

First, Ritchie Keller arrived yesterday in Rausch Creek , Pa with the Spur Chaser Racing buggy. For those that don’t know, I sponsor a buggy that runs in the Ultra 4 series. A lot of rock climbing, desert runs, etc.

At any rate, Ritchie ran qualifying today and placed 10th, good place to start from. Ill post updates over the weekend and hopefully some more pic’s as available.

Its my understanding that Ritchie broke his anti-sway bar today while running practice. He always stretches the boundaries and gives it his all.

Ill be posting some info/updates to my fall hunting season soon. Time is whisking by and I need to hammer out some last minute details.

Enjoy your weekend all and please be safe.

New contest on my Facebook page …

Good morning and welcome to Friday ,

I hope everyones week has gone good and your ready for another weekend. With this being a short week due to the holiday, it sure did fly by.

I have been busy working on fall hunt plans, including the Florida alligator hunt. As well as some other Spur Chaser business.

Id like to ‘Welcome’ Jamie Wells and Camoed Up Productions to the Spur Chaser Crew. Jamie will be in the field with me this fall behind the camera. We both look at this as a big step for us to be working together, and are very excited about the venture.

Lets get today over with and proceed to enjoy the weekend.
